A CRACK IN THE SKY (The Greenhouse Chronicles)

In an overheated future where savages fight to survive in the wasteland desert beyond dome-protected cities, thirteen year old Eli and his brain-chipped mongoose find themselves in a web of deception.



EARLY REVIEWS:

"Hughes gives us a peek into a future that is both fascinating and frightening. It’s a tight mystery where friends could be enemies, reality isn’t what it appears to be, and the threat of cataclysm grows with the turning of each page. But at its core is the story of a young guy who must grow up a lot quicker than he’d like."
       - D.J. MacHale, Author of The Pendragon series

"[A Crack In The Sky] marks the beginning of a thought-provoking series...Hughes takes on digital realities, mind control, corporate conspiracies, climate change, religious mania, and evil family members in this action-packed adventure."
       - Booklist

"This sci-fi dystopian mystery pulls you in and makes you want to discover the truth along with Eli and his pet mongoose..."
       - The Calgary Herald

"...an incredible story...I could not put it down...brilliant and rich and compelling and awesome...need I say more?"
       - Holly Frakes, Schuler Books and Music, Okemos, MI

“[The] first book in what promises to be an exciting series...A Crack in the Sky is a great read.”
